Other speakers include e.g. Eric Voskuil, Steve Barbour or Roman Snitko.

A specialized website about blockchain development in Vietnam.

you may find it using your favorite search engine.
in general, there are some "news websites" but i wouldn't call it "official" because official news websites are run by the government.

Bitcoin Meetup in Danang | Saturday 13th June 2020 | from 7PM @ IRINI Greek Restaurant Danang

BitcoinVN is a private company (various Bitcoin Exchange services for the Vietnamese market), the CEO is https://twitter.com/PhuongBitcoinVN.

Bitcoin Saigon does not have an owner, just the local community of Bitcoin enthusiasts, different people who build/maintained those pages.

However, some relations exist; e.g. BitcoinVN was besides Neutronpay and future.travel one of the three sponsors to make the Bitcoin Saigon Lightning Node a thing and some of the BitcoinVN team members are usually also around at the local meetups.
